Metabotyping Patients' Journeys Reveals Early Predisposition to Lung Injury after Cardiac Surgery

ABSTRACT: Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide and patients with severe symptoms undergo cardiac surgery. Even after uncomplicated surgeries, some patients experience postoperative complications such as lung injury. We hypothesized that the procedure elicits metabolic activity that can be related to the disease progression, which is commonly observed two-three days postoperatively. More than 700 blood samples were collected from 50 patients at nine time points pre-, intra-, and postoperatively. Dramatic metabolite shifts were observed during and immediately after the intervention. Prolonged surgical stress was linked to an augmented anaerobic environment. Time series analysis showed shifts in purine-, nicotinic acid-, tyrosine-, hyaluronic acid-, ketone-, fatty acid, and lipid metabolism. A characteristic ‘metabolic biosignature’ was identified correlating with the risk of developing postoperative complications two days before the first clinical signs of lung injury. Hence, this study demonstrates the link between intra- and postoperative time-dependent metabolite changes and later postoperative outcome. In addition, the results indicate that metabotyping patients’ journeys early, during or just after the end of surgery, may have potential impact in hospitals for the early diagnosis of postoperative lung injury, and for the monitoring of therapeutics targeting disease progression.

Project description:Sepsis is the most common cause of hospitalization worldwide. Millions of people survive sepsis each year and are at risk for rehospitalization and death. Pulmonary complications such as respiratory failure due to pneumonia and exacerbation of chronic respiratory disease are among the most common reasons for rehospitalization in sepsis survivors. In order to prevent additional morbidity and death in patients surviving sepsis, we must establish biomarkers to identify patients at risk for pulmonary complications and develop treatments. Late complications in sepsis survivors, particularly nosocomial infections, are proposed to occur through persistent immune reprogramming after sepsis known as immunoparalysis. However, pro-inflammatory immune reprogramming in the form of primed or enhanced responses to secondary stimuli has also been described and could directly contribute to tissue injury and death. Primed immune responses and their contribution to long-term sepsis complications remains understudied. We hypothesize that primed immune responses to inflammatory stimuli in the lung after sepsis are associated with pulmonary complications in survivors of sepsis. To this end, we developed a model of antibiotic treated sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture followed three weeks later by secondary challenge with intranasal lipopolysaccharide to induce inflammatory lung injury. We find that mice surviving sepsis have enhanced lung injury responses in the setting of an exaggerated proinflammatory immune response, including primed Ly6Chi monocyte Tnf expression. Using RNA sequencing, we identified derangements in lung gene expression after CLP prior to LPS administration which may mediate enhanced lung injury in this model. One potential mediator, S100A8/A9, was also found to be elevated in the circulation of human sepsis survivors for up to 180 days after sepsis. These findings validate our model and identify S100A8/A9 as one of many potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for patients at risk for long-term pulmonary complications after sepsis. The role of S100A8/A9, monocyte priming, and other factors predisposing to enhanced lung injury responses and pulmonary complications after sepsis warrant further investigation in humans and mice.
